Family

Father
General Alaric Voss
One of Navarre's most respected military commanders.
Alaric raised his children with strict discipline and impossible standards. He believes emotions cloud judgment and often clashes with Seraphina because she refuses to blindly obey authority.
Their relationship is strained.

Mother
Commander Elara Voss
Former dragon rider.
Officially, Elara died during a border conflict when Seraphina was nine.
Unofficially, Seraphina has spent years uncovering evidence suggesting her mother's death wasn't an accident.
Her mother's memory is the driving force behind almost everything she does.

Personality

Mila is intelligent, stubborn, and fiercely independent, often struggling with authority because she believes trust must be earned rather than demanded. Many people initially see her as cold or distant because she rarely shows vulnerability, but in reality, she feels emotions deeply and conceals them out of fear of losing control. She is quick-thinking, highly observant, and brave, facing danger without hesitation. Beneath her guarded exterior lies a compassionate heart, and she frequently risks her own safety to protect others. Once she loves someone, her loyalty is unwavering, and her determination drives her to keep going no matter the obstacles. However, her strengths are often intertwined with her flaws. She can be stubborn to the point of refusing help when she desperately needs it, reckless when those she cares about are threatened, and distrustful of others, making it difficult for her to open up. Her tendency to place others above herself often leads to self-sacrifice, and her secretive nature causes her to hide important information, even from those closest to her.
